Mary's father, whose name is unknown was a mixture of English, Scottish and Pennsylvania Dutch and was a shoe cobbler by trade and belonged to the "Dunkard" (later changed to the "Brethern") church. The early Dunkard people wore a distinctive dress much like the early Quaker's, drab brown, grey or black in color.  The women wore long dresses with large collars, the points of which came down over the breasts with bonnets tied under the chin. The collars and bonnets were often white. In church they belived in no musical instruments but did allow a tuning for for pitch when singing.
